Abstract
Solar energy is a renewable resource that can supply our energy needs in the long term. A semiconductor photocatalysis that is capable of utilizing solar energy has appealed to considerable interests for recent decades, owing to the ability to aim at environmental problems and produce renewal energy. Much effort has been put into the synthesis of a highly efficient semiconductor photocatalyst to promote its real application potential. Hence, we reviewed the most advanced methods and strategies in terms of (i) broadening the light absorption wavelengths, (ii) design of active reaction sites, and (iii) control of the electron-hole (e--h+) recombination, while these three processes could be influenced by remodeling the crystal lattice, surface, and interface. Additionally, we individually examined their current applications in energy conversion (i.e., hydrogen evolution, CO2 reduction, nitrogen fixation, and oriented synthesis) and environmental remediation (i.e., air purification and wastewater treatment). Overall, in this review, we particularly focused on advanced photocatalytic activity with simultaneous wastewater decontamination and energy conversion and further enriched the mechanism by proposing the electron flow and substance conversion. Finally, this review offers the prospects of semiconductor photocatalysts in the following three vital (distinct) aspects: (i) the large-scale preparation of highly efficient photocatalysts, (ii) the development of sustainable photocatalysis systems, and (iii) the optimization of the photocatalytic process for practical application.

Abstract
Solar photocatalysis is a potential solution to satisfying energy demand and its resulting environmental impact. However, the low electron-hole separation efficiency in semiconductors has slowed the development of this technology. The effect of defects on electron-hole separation is not always clear. A model atomically thin structure of single-unit-cell Bi3 O4 Br nanosheets with surface defects is proposed to boost photocatalytic efficiency by simultaneously promoting bulk- and surface-charge separation. Defect-rich single-unit-cell Bi3 O4 Br displays 4.9 and 30.9 times enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution and nitrogen fixation activity, respectively, than bulk Bi3 O4 Br. After the preparation of single-unit-cell structure, the bismuth defects are controlled to tune the oxygen defects. Benefiting from the unique single-unit-cell architecture and defects, the local atomic arrangement and electronic structure are tuned so as to greatly increase the charge separation efficiency and subsequently boost photocatalytic activity. This strategy provides an accessible pathway for next-generation photocatalysts.

Abstract
In this study, a new photocatalytic reaction system for simultaneous selective oxidation of aromatic alcohols to corresponding aldehydes and reduction of protons to H2 has been developed. The results reveal that compared with pure ZnIn2S4, the ZnIn2S4 photocatalysts modified with noble metal gold (Au/ZnIn2S4) significantly promote the photocatalytic performance. Among them, the 0.5% Au/ZnIn2S4 nanosheets shows the highest photocatalytic activity for selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde and hydrogen production, and the yields of H2 and benzaldehyde are 326.68 and 352.04 μmol under visible light irradiation for 4 h, respectively. Those are about 4.4 and 3.6 times higher than those of pure ZnIn2S4 sample (74.0 μmol H2 and 98.04 μmol benzaldehyde), respectively. The utilization ratio of photogenerated electrons to holes can achieve 92.8%. Additionally, the control experiments demonstrate that the photogenerated electrons and holes play significant roles during the reaction process. It is hoped that the current work can offer an avenue to utilize the photogenerated carriers more efficiently and to develop other photocatalytic reaction systems, such as nitrogen fixation and reduction of carbon dioxide.

Abstract
The discovery of improved chemical processes for CO and CO2 hydrogenation to valuable hydrocarbon fuels and alcohols is of paramount importance for the chemical industry. Such technologies have the potential to reduce anthropogenic CO2 emissions by adding value to a waste stream, whilst also reducing our consumption of fossil fuels. Current thermal catalytic technologies available for CO and CO2 hydrogenation are demanding in terms of energy input. Various alternative technologies are now being developed for COx hydrogenation, with solar-driven processes over two-dimensional (2D) and 2D-related composite materials being particularly attractive due to the abundance of solar energy on Earth and also the high selectivity of defect-engineered 2D materials towards specific valuable products under very mild reaction conditions. This review showcases recent advances in the solar-driven COx reduction to hydrocarbons over 2D-based materials. Optimization of 2D catalyst performance demands interdisciplinary research that embraces catalyst electronic structure manipulation and morphology control, surface/interface engineering, reactor engineering and density functional theory modelling studies. Through improved understanding of the structure-performance relationships in 2D-related catalysts which is achievable through the application of modern in situ characterization techniques, practical photo/photothermal/photoelectrochemical technologies for CO and CO2 reduction to high-valuable products such as olefins could be realized in the not-too-distant future.

Abstract
Inspired by natural photosynthesis, the design of new Z-scheme photocatalytic systems is very promising for boosting the photocatalytic performance of H2 production and CO2 reduction; however, until now, the direct synthesis of efficient Z-scheme photocatalysts remains a grand challenge. Herein, it is demonstrated that an interesting Z-scheme photocatalyst can be constructed by coupling In2 O3 and ZnIn2 Se4 semiconductors based on theoretical calculations. Experimentally, a class of ultrathin In2 O3 -ZnIn2 Se4 (denoted as In2 O3 -ZISe) spontaneous Z-scheme nanosheet photocatalysts for greatly enhancing photocatalytic H2 production is made. Furthermore, Mo atoms are incorporated in the Z-scheme In2 O3 -ZISe nanosheet photocatalyst by forming the MoSe bond, confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, in which the formed MoSe2 works as cocatalyst of the Z-scheme photocatalyst. As a consequence, such a unique structure of In2 O3 -ZISe-Mo makes it exhibit 21.7 and 232.6 times higher photocatalytic H2 evolution activity than those of In2 O3 -ZnIn2 Se4 and In2 O3 nanosheets, respectively. Moreover, In2 O3 -ZISe-Mo is also very stable for photocatalytic H2 production by showing almost no activity decay for 16 h test. Ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectra, photoluminescence spectroscopy, transient photocurrent spectra, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy reveal that the enhanced photocatalytic performance of In2 O3 -ZISe-Mo is mainly attributed to its widened photoresponse range and effective carrier separation because of its special structure.

Abstract
A binary nanocomposite composed of two-dimensional (2D) ultrathin ZnIn2S4 nanosheets and one-dimension (1D) TiO2 nanobelts was prepared and applied as a noble-metal-free photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution under solar-light irradiation. The TiO2 nanobelt/ZnIn2S4 nanosheet heterojunction nanocomposites show higher light absorption capacity, larger surface area and higher separation of charge carriers in comparison to pristine TiO2 and ZnIn2S4. As a result, the hydrogen production over the TiO2/ZnIn2S4 nanocomposite with 15 wt% TiO2 can reach up to 348.21 μmol · g-1 · h-1, even without noble metals, which is about 26 and 2.3 times higher than the pristine TiO2 and ZnIn2S4, respectively. Meanwhile, a possible photocatalytic mechanism of TiO2/ZnIn2S4 heterojunction nanocomposites was proposed and corroborated by photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and photoelectrochemical (PEC) results. This work paves a way for developing low-cost and high-efficiency noble-metal-free photocatalytic systems for solar-to-hydrogen evolution.

Abstract
Two-dimensional materials and single-atom catalysts are two frontier research fields in catalysis. A new category of catalysts with the integration of both aspects has been rapidly developed in recent years, and significant advantages were established to make it an independent research field. In this Review, we will focus on the concept of two-dimensional materials confining single atoms for catalysis. The new electronic states via the integration lead to their mutual benefits in activity, that is, two-dimensional materials with unique geometric and electronic structures can modulate the catalytic performance of the confined single atoms, and in other cases the confined single atoms can in turn affect the intrinsic activity of two-dimensional materials. Three typical two-dimensional materials are mainly involved here, i.e., graphene, g-C3N4, and MoS2, and the confined single atoms include both metal and nonmetal atoms. First, we systematically introduce and discuss the classic synthesis methods, advanced characterization techniques, and various catalytic applications toward two-dimensional materials confining single-atom catalysts. Finally, the opportunities and challenges in this emerging field are featured on the basis of its current development.

Abstract
Recently, ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have attracted considerable research interest in biomedical applications, owing to their intriguing quantum size and surface effects. In this work, a one-step "bottom-up" method is developed to prepare rare-earth (Gd3+ and Yb3+) co-doped layered double hydroxide (LDH) monolayer nanosheets, with a precisely controlled composition and uniform morphology. Due to the successful introduction of Gd3+ and Yb3+ into the LDH host layer, the Gd&Yb-LDH monolayer nanosheets exhibit excellent magnetic resonance (MR)/X-ray computed tomography (CT) dual-mode imaging functionality. Moreover, the Gd&Yb-LDH monolayer nanosheets achieve an ultrahigh loading of a chemotherapeutic drug (SN38) with a loading content (LC) of 925%, which is a one order of magnitude enhancement compared with previously reported delivery systems of hydrophobic drugs. Interestingly, by further combination with indocyanine green (ICG), in vivo tri-mode imaging, including CT, MR and near infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging, is achieved, which enables a noninvasive visualization of cancer cell distribution with deep spatial resolution and high sensitivity. In addition, in vitro and in vivo therapeutic evaluations demonstrate an extremely high tri-mode synergetic anticancer activity and superior biocompatibility of SN38&ICG/Gd&Yb-LDH. Therefore, this work demonstrates a paradigm for the synthesis of novel multifunctional 2D monolayer materials via a facile "bottom-up" route, which shows promising applications in cancer synergetic theranostics.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) metal chalcogenides (MC) such as MoS2 have been recognized as promising materials for near future applications. However, general strategies to functionalize them are still scarce, while the nature of functionalization still remains unclear. Herein, we demonstrate a simple and universal functionalization route through complexation reaction between the amino-containing organic agents and MCs. Degrees of functionalization are tunable by adjusting the organic group types and ratios. No further defects are introduced and the functionalized 2D MCs are dispersible in corresponding typical solvents. Both experimental results and geometry optimization calculations indicate that the grafting of functional groups through the coordination effect truly exist, while the surface properties and resulting photoelectric properties of 2D MCs are greatly altered. More intriguingly, our proposed functionalization process is demonstrated to be universal and can be applied to different MCs, thus opening new avenues for the application of 2D MCs.

Abstract
A series of ternary sulfide hollow structures have been successfully prepared by a facile glutathione (GSH)-assisted one-step hydrothermal route, where GSH acts as the source of sulfur and bubble template. We demonstrate the feasibility and versatility of this in situ gas-bubble template strategy by the fabrication of novel hollow structures of MIn2S4 (M = Cd, Zn, Ca, Mg, and Mn). Interestingly, with the reaction time varying, the hierarchical CdIn2S4 microspheres with controlled internal structures can be regulated from yolk-shell, smaller yolk-shell (yolk-shell with shrunk yolk), hollow, to solid. Under visible-light irradiation, all of our prepared CdIn2S4 samples with different morphologies were photoactivated. In virtue of the appealing hierarchical hollow structure, the yolk-shell-structured CdIn2S4 microspheres exhibited the optimal photocatalytic activity and excellent durability for both the X3B degradation and H2 evolution, which can be ascribed to the synergy-promoting effect of the small crystallite size together with the unique structural advantages of the yolk-shell structure. Thus, we hypothesize that this proof-of-concept strategy paves an example of rational design of hollow structured ternary or multinary sulfides with superior photochemical performance, holding great potential for future multifunctional applications.

Abstract
As a sustainable technology, semiconductor photocatalysis has attracted considerable interest in the past several decades owing to the potential to relieve or resolve energy and environmental-pollution issues. By virtue of their unique structural and electronic properties, emerging ultrathin 2D materials with appropriate band structure show enormous potential to achieve efficient photocatalytic performance. Here, the state-of-the-art progress on ultrathin 2D photocatalysts is reviewed and a critical appraisal of the classification, controllable synthesis, and formation mechanism of ultrathin 2D photocatalysts is presented. Then, different strategies to tailor the electronic structure of ultrathin 2D photocatalysts are summarized, including component tuning, thickness tuning, doping, and defect engineering. Hybridization with the introduction of a foreign component and maintaining the ultrathin 2D structure is presented to further boost the photocatalytic performance, such as quantum dots/2D materials, single atoms/2D materials, molecular/2D materials, and 2D-2D stacking materials. More importantly, the advancement of versatile photocatalytic applications of ultrathin 2D photocatalysts in the fields of water oxidation, hydrogen evolution, CO2 reduction, nitrogen fixation, organic syntheses, and removal pollutants is discussed. Finally, the future opportunities and challenges regarding ultrathin 2D photocatalysts to bring about new opportunities for future research in the field of photocatalysis are also presented.

Abstract
Semiconductor photocatalysis for hydrogen production is a promising route to address current energy demands. It is still a great challenge to spatially separate photogenerated electrons and holes in bulk photocatalysts because of the long carrier transport pathway from the bulk to the surface. 2D heterostructured photocatalysts with the type II band alignment can not only shorten the carrier transport pathway, but also create an electric field at the interface to suppress the carrier recombination. However, ultrathin and intimate-contact 2D heterostructured photocatalysts have rarely been achieved so far. Herein, we reported that ZnIn2S4 nanosheets were self-assembled on few-layer MoS2 nanosheets to fabricate ultrathin and intimate-contact 2D heterostructured photocatalysts. This 2D heterostructure was formed thanks to the strong electrostatic adsorption between MoS2 and ZnIn2S4. Under visible light irradiation, the H2 evolution rate of 2D MoS2/ZnIn2S4 heterostructured photocatalysts can reach 8898 μmol g-1 h-1, which is almost 16 times higher than that of the pure ZnIn2S4 photocatalysts. The dramatically enhanced photocatalytic performance was ascribed to the better charge separation and the accelerated surface reaction due to the heterostructure and more active sites provided by MoS2. These results provided a new insight for the design and development of 2D heterostructured photocatalysts.

Abstract
Building an effective way for finding the role of surface defects in gas sensing property remains a big challenge. In the present work, we synthesized the ZnO nanodishes (NDs) and first explored the formation process of rich electron donor surface defects by means of studying mechanism for the ZnO NDs synthesis. The test results revealed that ZnO-6, added by 6 mmol Zn powder, had the best gas-sensing properties with the excellent selectivity to ethanol than the others. Specially, the ZnO-6 sensor exhibited the best response (about 49) to 100 ppm ethanol at 230 °C among four as-synthesized samples, while noncustomized ZnO was only 28. It was mainly caused by the following two reasons: the exposure of target (0001) crystal facet and rich electron donor surface defects zinc interstitial (Zni) and oxygen vacancy (VO). As a guide, the formation process of surface defects was revealed by an ideal defect model. By the small-angle XRD and TEM patterns, we could conclude that ZnO NDs, changing stoichiometric ratio, increased the content of Zni by adding Zn powder, while excessive Zn powder promoted the growth of c axis of ZnO NDs in the self-assembly engineering. Besides, a depletion model has been provided to explain how the surface defects work on the sensors and the complex mechanism of gas sensing performance. These findings will develop the application of ZnO-based gas sensor in health and security.

Abstract
A highly efficient visible-light-driven photocatalyst is urgently necessary for photocatalytic hydrogen generation through water splitting. Herein, ZnIn2 S4 hierarchical architectures assembled as ultrathin nanosheets were synthesized by a facile one-pot polyol approach. Subsequently, the two-dimensional-network-like MoSe2 was successfully hybridized with ZnIn2 S4 by taking advantage of their analogous intrinsic layered morphologies. The noble-metal-free ZnIn2 S4 /MoSe2 heterostructures show enhanced photocatalytic H2 evolution compared to pure ZnIn2 S4 . It is noteworthy that the optimum nanocomposite of ZnIn2 S4 /2 % MoSe2 photocatalyst displays a high H2 generation rate of 2228 μmol g-1 h-1 and an apparent quantum yield (AQY) of 21.39 % at 420 nm. This study presents an unprecedented ZnIn2 S4 /MoSe2 metal-sulfide-metal-selenide hybrid system for H2 evolution. Importantly, the present efficient hybridization strategy reveals the potential of hierarchical nanoarchitectures for a multitude of energy storage and solar energy conversion applications.

Abstract
Herein, excellent light absorption and oxygen-evolving activity were simultaneously achieved by doping fluorine anions into hematite nanocrystals. Upon anion doping, the band structure of hematite can be effectively regulated, leading to the generation of defect levels between the band gap and remarkably increased visible light absorption. The activity for electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) of the hematite nanocrystals is enhanced after fluorine doping, where the doped hematite assists as an effective catalyst for photoelectrochemical water splitting. The optimization strategy proposed herein may shed light on the future design of photocatalysts for energy-related applications.

Abstract
Element doping plays a key role in achieving desired properties of semiconductor nanocrystals. In the energy-state landscape the doping-induced localized impurity states (LIS) can bring on significant modification of photoelectrochemical effects. It is difficult to retrieve information regarding the doping-induced LIS. Here we report on such information gleaned on a prototypical system of CdS nanocrystals slightly doped with In3+, through joint observations from photoluminescence (PL) and ultrafast transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy. The nonradiative nature of the In-doping induced LIS is revealed by PL. The TA observations, with a set of control experiments, enable us to capture a picture of the photoexcited electron dynamics and unravel the photoexcited electron reservoir (PEER) effect associated with the In-doping induced band gap LIS. This work establishes a fundamental, mechanistic understanding of the significant impact of element doping on the photoexcited electron dynamics in this model system, offering useful inputs for relevant material design and applications.

Abstract
Ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), such as MoS2 , WS2 , TiS2 , TaS2 , ReS2 , MoSe2 and WSe2 , have attracted considerable attention over the past six years owing to their unique properties and great potential in a wide range of applications. Aiming to achieve tunable properties and optimal application performances, great effort is devoted to the exploration of 2D multinary layered metal chalcogenide nanomaterials, which include ternary metal chalcogenides with well-defined crystal structures, alloyed TMDs, heteroatom-doped TMDs and 2D metal chalcogenide heteronanostructures. These novel 2D multinary layered metal chalcogenide nanomaterials exhibit some unique properties compared to 2D binary TMD counterparts, thus holding great promise in various potential applications including electronics/optoelectronics, catalysis, sensors, biomedicine, and energy storage and conversion with enhanced performances. This article focuses on the state-of-art progress on the preparation, characterization and applications of ultrathin 2D multinary layered metal chalcogenide nanomaterials.

Abstract
A rational design of highly active and robust catalysts based on earth-abundant elements for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is essential for future renewable energy applications. Herein, we report the synthesis of a new class of ultrathin metallic CuFeS2 nanosheets (NSs) with abundant exposed high-index {02[combining macron]4} facets. They serve as a robust catalyst for the HER with a lower onset potential of 28.1 mV, an overpotential of only 88.7 mV (at j = 10 mA cm-2) and remarkable long-term stability in 0.5 M H2SO4, which make them the best system among all the reported non-noble metal catalysts. The theoretical calculations reveal that the mechanistic origin for such a high HER activity should be attributed to the excess S2- active sites on the exposed {02[combining macron]4} high-index facets of CuFeS2 NSs, which have a rather favorable Gibbs free energy for atomic hydrogen adsorption. The present work highlights the importance of designing ultrathin metallic chalcopyrite nanosheets with high-index facets in order to increase the number of active sites for boosting the HER performance.
